Book Description
A crook messes up his first murder due to a misplaced phone call, a tenant grapples with his grumpy ex-landlord to get back his deposit, a son revels in his father coming out of depression due to a leopard. An orphan slum boy and his dog caught in Mumbai’s biggest deluge, a young boy's escapades in the hills only to be held captive while witnessing wildfires, a gifted but struggling poet becoming estranged with his wife due to the adversities of life. In this seeming farrago of short stories and poems - you will encounter incredible but real characters dealing with tricky situations, complex human relationships, dreams, superstitions and even reflections on the basic premise of life. From these myriad pieces, some of which are broken, some complete, some colourful and some dark, there emerges a synergy, a harmony in the way they are all cemented together to create a beautifully imperfect mosaic that promises to resonate with your mind and nudge your heart.

Book Description
Arguably the finest work of 20th century Kannada literature, D V Gundappa's Mankutimmana Kagga is a bouquet of remarkable verses that are meditations on life, creation, destiny, art, culture, history, human nature, and the universe. Insightful, humorous, charming, hard-hitting, and inspiring by turns, the Kagga is a song of life that has something for everyone. Foggy Fool's Farrago is a modern translation in simple English with a detailed introduction and copious additional notes that will build the bridge between this masterpiece and readers across the globe. Devanahalli Venkataramanayya Gundappa (1887-1975) was a great visionary and polymath. He was a journalist, poet, art connoisseur, philosopher, political analyst, institution builder, social commentator, social worker, and activist. He founded/edited many newspapers, wrote extensively in Kannada and English, established social organizations and guilds, and worked tirelessly for people's welfare. He lived like a sage till the last, moving easily with rich and poor, bureaucrat and laborer, scholar and unschooled. He received the Kendra Sahitya Akademi Award in 1967 and the Padma Bhushan in 1974.

Book Description
'Hear and attend and listen...' Rudyard Kipling is a supreme master of the short story in English and a poet of brilliant gifts. His energy and inventiveness poured themselves into every kind of tale, from the bleakest of fables to the richest of comedies, and he illuminated every aspect of human behaviour, of which he was a fascinated (and sometimes appalled) observer. This generous selection of stories and poems, first published in the acclaimed Oxford Authors series, covers the full range of Kipling's career from the youthful volumes that brought him fame as the chronicler of British India, to the bittersweet fruits of age and bereavement in the aftermath of the First World War. It includes stories such as 'The Man who would be King', 'Mrs Bathurst', and 'Mary Postgate', and poems from Barrack-Room Ballads and other collections. In his introduction and notes Daniel Karlin addresses the controversial political engagement of Kipling's art, and the sources of its imaginative power.

Book Description
The Works of Jack London: Novels, Short Stories, Poems, Plays, Memoirs & Essays is a comprehensive collection that showcases the diverse talents of the iconic American author. Jack London's works, known for their naturalistic themes and vivid storytelling, capture the essence of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This collection includes his well-known novels like 'The Call of the Wild' and 'White Fang', as well as his lesser-known essays and plays, providing readers with a complete picture of London's literary genius. London's writing style is engaging and thought-provoking, offering insights into the human condition and the wild beauty of nature. His works stand the test of time and continue to inspire readers around the world. Jack London, a prolific writer and adventurer, drew inspiration from his own experiences as a seaman, laborer, and gold prospector. His socialist beliefs and love for the wilderness shaped his writing, leading to the creation of some of the most enduring works in American literature. London's passion for social justice and exploration infuses his writing with a sense of urgency and authenticity. I highly recommend The Works of Jack London to any reader interested in literature that explores the depths of human nature and the untamed beauty of the natural world. London's timeless works continue to resonate with readers of all ages, making this collection a must-read for anyone looking to delve into the mind of one of America's greatest storytellers.

Book Description
This famous work was the result of the wartime collaboration of two Scottish scholars. Their tracing of the course of English poetry has been described by The Times Literary Supplement as a 'volume of masterly compression'. They deliberately spend most time on the greatest poets, believing that, significant as traditions and influences are, the great poet himself affects the spirit of his age and moulds the tradition he has inherited. At the same time, enough attention is paid to minor poets to make the book historically complete, and to fill in the most important links in the chain of poetic development. Thus Gower is here, as well as Chaucer; Patmore, as well as Browning. Both in scope and in detail A Critical History of English Poetry is a distinguished and valuable work.
